Samuel,
Sounds great, thanks for the helpful information! I am looking forward to the
new patch.
Thanks,

The patch works perfectly for our usage case (Like the existing TPM ABI, the raw measurement is taken instead of recording the log entry.). Assuming RTMR serves as an alternative to TPM-based measurement, migrating existing software to the RTMR could be greatly simplified by developing an ABI that resembles the TPM.
